# PC-DMIS Portable: User Interface

There are PC-DMIS user interface elements that are particularly useful when you use portable devices. The image below shows a sample Portable user interface.

Example of a Portable user interface

The following user interface elements are discussed in greater detail elsewhere in this documentation:

- Using the Portable toolbars

- Edit window

- Quick Start interface

- Status bar

- Status window

- Probe Readouts

Also, the following user interface elements are discussed in greater detail in the PC-DMIS Core documentation:

- Menu bar - You can access all PC-DMIS functionality from the menu bar and the corresponding drop-down lists. For more information on the menu bar, see "The Menu Bar" in the "Navigating the User Interface" chapter in the PC-DMIS Core documentation.

- Graphic View toolbar - Allows you to change the view of the Graphic Display window. For more information on this toolbar, see "Graphic View Toolbar" in the "Using Toolbars" chapter in the PC-DMIS Core documentation.

- Graphic Item toolbar - Toggles the display of Graphic Display window labels. For more information on this toolbar, see "Graphic Items Toolbar" in the "Using Toolbars" chapter in the PC-DMIS Core documentation.

- Graphic Display window - Displays the geometric features that are being measured. For more information on this window, see "The Graphic Display Window" in the "Navigating the User Interface" chapter in the PC-DMIS Core documentation.

- Dimensions Color bar - Shows the colors for dimension tolerances and their associated scale values. For more information on this item, see "Using the Dimensions Colors Window (Dimensions Color Bar)" in the "Using Other Windows, Editors, and Tools" chapter in the PC-DMIS Core documentation.

If your LMS license or portlock is programmed to support all interfaces, you need to run the PC-DMIS installation program with one of the following switches: /Interface:romer, /Interface:leica, /Interface:smxlaser, or /Interface:faro. You can add these case-sensitive switches by creating a shortcut to the PC-DMIS Setup.exe file and appending the needed switch to the Target box (for example: C:\Download\PC-DMIS\Setup.exe /Interface:romer). If you install with the LMS license or portlock programmed for a specific interface, the correct interface is installed automatically.
